NCUB led a focused, member-only roundtable exploring how UK universities and businesses are working together to develop future-ready talent. Drawing on the latest Collaboration Progress Monitor data, we examined how well partnerships are addressing skills needs, placements, and workforce readiness.
This session offered a unique opportunity to shape the narrative of NCUB’s influential State of the Relationship report and inform future policy to strengthen talent pipelines.
Attendees benefitted from:
- Getting a first look at new CPM findings on skills and talent development
- A space to discuss challenges, gaps, and opportunities in university-business collaboration
- A chance to shape policy recommendations and the framing of this year’s report
This session was designed for senior university leaders and analysts involved in research, innovation, and engagement strategy, including:
- Pro-Vice-Chancellors for Education
- Directors of Graduate Employability or Careers
- Heads of Student Enterprise or Business Engagement
Session format:
